Caudle, Kyle – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2010
In late October 1967, the USS Scorpion was lost at sea, somewhere between the Azores and Norfolk Virginia. Dr. Craven of the U.S. Navy's Special Projects Division is credited with using Bayesian Search Theory to locate the submarine. Bayesian Search Theory is a straightforward and interesting application of Bayes' theorem which involves searching…

Nicolaou, Christiana T.; Nicolaidou, Iolie; Zacharia, Zacharias; Constantinou, Constantinos P. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2007
This article reports on a research effort that investigated whether the use of Microcomputer-Based Labs (MBLs), implemented within an inquiry-based activity sequence on phase transformations (melting and freezing), contributes to the development of fourth grade (9-10 year-old) students' conceptual understanding and ability to construct and…
